P2PLAY
P2PLAY is a stripped-down playback-only version of the DOS PHANTOM TSR.
Because the recording features, including the pop-up control panel, have
been removed, P2PLAY uses less memory than PHANTOM2.
P2PLAY generates no sounds, displays no status, and generates no error
messages. For this reason, it can be difficult to diagnose problems
encountered in P2PLAY playbacks. We suggest that you use PHANTOM2 during
development of your scripts, and only use P2PLAY after the scripts appear
to operate correctly.
The P2PLAY program, if invoked with no arguments, displays its copyright
notice. The following DOS Phantom command line switches are supported
by P2PLAY:
/I Install as a TSR
/U Uninstall
/A Set abort hot key (default is NONE)
/E Set shell environment space
All switches are optional. A single argument, the file to play, is
required. Examples:
C:\> P2PLAY RECORDNG.PTM
C:\> P2PLAY /E:2048 TESTREC.PTM
If the copyright notice is displayed, P2PLAY was unable to interpret
the command line switches supplied. If the playback file cannot be
found, P2PLAY exits with no message.
Note that once P2PLAY has been installed as a TSR, if you execute the
P2PLAY command at the DOS prompt, P2PLAY will attempt to re-play the most
recently played recording. If the playback attempt is unsuccessful, no
error message is displayed.
